Anybody have a starter problem that they solved using a remote solenoid ?
Was told this would solve the problem I've been having where the starter will not engage one out of 10 or so times!
I've replace the starter a number of times,only to have it happen again!

Battery is a Yellow Top( 800+ AMPS), have a digital volt reading above the battery,shows 12.3 to 12.8 volts @ most times. Alternator is a 140 amp unit! The charging system is sound!Also the battery feed to the starter is a 0 gauge wire, along with a gound of the same from the battery to the frame & engine block!Too much draw between the ignition switch & the starter. I will take a reading on the stock trigger wire before & after.

I have replaced 3 Starters so far. and 3 starter relays. I actually hooked up a button under the hood for when it fails i can still drive if i need to. Today the problem started again. Let me know some ideas too please.
